Wood End Primary School

We are a primary school at the heart of the Greenford and Northolt community in the London Borough of Ealing.

It is with great pride that we welcome you to our wonderful school, where we are committed to achieving high standards and providing the very best opportunities for your children.

We are proud of our positive ethos within the school where all children and staff feel part of a caring learning community.

Our teaching is stimulating and creative, and encourages our children to continue their education outside of school and become lifelong learners. We want to ignite an interest in the world around them, and for that interest to lead fulfilling and imaginative lives. Learning should be fun!

Whilst academic achievements are important part of life at our school, all our children also have the opportunity to enjoy a wide variety of sporting and musical opportunities, as well as regular trips and residential visits. Our pastoral care is exceptional, ensuring all children are kept safe and are supported both inside and outside school.

We are also very proud of our exceptionally experienced and dedicated staff, who - with support from our Governors - ensure that all our children are well supported to achieve their true potential, and work hard with families to overcome any barriers to learning.

Another very important part of our school is you, the parent! We champion the link between school, and parents and work very hard to involve you in every step of your child's time here...and increase your child's enjoyment of learning. Strong family support such as this is fundamental to giving children a stepping stone  to the future.
